How our Christmas hog roast works in Stoneleigh
Christmas fairs and lights switch-ons in Stoneleigh suit a hog roast stall: hot food in the hand on a cold evening. We’re often asked to cater year-end thank-yous and family Christmas gatherings, serving hog roast rolls, roast turkey and roast potatoes.
In Stoneleigh, festive gatherings tend to be at home or the hall. We need firm ground and some light. Everything we need to roast, carve and serve comes with us, and we leave the spot tidy when we go.

How the day works
Carving is part of the show: the hog is carved in front of your guests, and the crackling is shared out so everyone gets some. Sunset in Stoneleigh in late December is about 3:55pm, so even a late-afternoon Christmas party needs lighting by the roaster and the serving table. We start in daylight and cook into the dark.

What affects the price in Stoneleigh
The biggest factors are:
- Numbers
- Travel to Stoneleigh
- Busy dates such as summer Saturdays
- Which meats and sides you choose
Extras such as lamb, chicken, more sides or china crockery add to the cost, so each one is itemised. A simple menu keeps the cost down.
What we need to know
We can quote more accurately with a few details. Here’s what’s useful:
- Which meats and sides you’d like
- Your date and serving time
- A photo of the cooking area
- Any dietary needs or allergies
Tell us your date, venue or postcode and roughly how many people, along with your serving time. We will check the date and send a quote. Use our quote form.
Catered or do it yourself?
Roasting a whole hog yourself is possible, but it takes hours of attention, from early set-up to carving at the end. With us catering, you get to be a host, not a cook.
We also hire out the hog roast machine for confident cooks. You cook and carve it yourself; we will explain what’s supplied and how it works when we quote.
The menu, dish by dish
Vegan burger or sausage (Ve)
Vegan guests can have a vegan burger or sausage, so everyone has something hot.
Crackling

- Firm ground rather than soft lawn
- Indoor space for eating

If you’re unsure, send a picture of the space and the way in, and we’ll say what we think.

Allergies and dietary needs
A hog roast is pork, so plan for anyone who doesn’t eat it. Some ways to look after everyone:
- Halal isn’t offered, so arrange it separately
- Share the allergen information in advance
- Request gluten-free rolls
- Keep vegetarian food labelled
At the agreed time, we carve hot and serve, so food goes out straight from the roaster.
Ask about gluten-free rolls.
- Slow-roasted on site for hours, outdoors at your event
- Carved to order by our chef, with stuffing, apple sauce and crackling
- Vegetarian and vegan choices, plus lamb or chicken if you like
- Served by our staff at the time you choose, then cleared away
